I am wondering if this is the same Nurburgring that everyone else is thinking of... "most of the turns are friendly"??

Pretty biased comment there... there is only one American car that has done well at the 'Ring... (well 2 - if you count the CTS-V - well 3 if you also count the STS-V )

The C5 Z06 and the C6 Z06 have proven that they do well a the Nurburgring, not because the Nurburgring is an "easy track that allows the badly handling American cars to do well" -- but becuase they are decently handling cars.

Thsi would be the FIRST time I have heard someone slam the Ring as "easy" because American cars do well there hehe

You have to know the track well... -- you said it.. but you could also be a professional race car driver... you know they have 24 hour races on the Nurburgring.. right? And there are people who have hundreds, maybe thousands of laps there - I think they qualify as "Know the trcak well"..
